In the spirit of Tony Bourdain, food as adventure. Try everything twice in case it was made wrong the first time. Eat without fear or prejudice.

Heirlooms Make Everything Better!

While I've been dreading the weekly dump of squash, I continue to eagerly look forward to each week's batch of tomatoes. Each week we've gotten 1 1/2 pints of tasty sungold and regular cherry tomatoes, 3 lbs of regular tomatoes, and 4 lbs of a variety of heirlooms ranging from big and red, to small and orange, to green, to deep blackish-red. Makes for wonderfully mixed caprese salads (with my favorite vinegar).

Good tomatoes make such a difference, and it's such luxury being able to eat a great tomato with anything. I think redneckhunter and I are probably the only people in the world eating heirloom, liverwurst and cream cheese sandwiches though...
